Walter Nouvel
Walter Feodorovich Nouvel (Russian: Вальтер Федорович Нувель) (1871–1949) was a Russian émigré art-lover and writer. He co-wrote with Arnold Haskell a biography of Sergei Pavlovitch Diaghilev (Diaghileff. His Artistic and Private life), and was the ghost-writer of Igor Stravinsky's autobiography Chronique de ma Vie (Chronicle of my life). Nouvel fled the Soviet Union in 1919 and worked as secretary and factotum for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes.
